Thats a Professional Products manifold. They arent by any means cheap. GOod quality products IMO. Not a huge gain with it, but still would be an improvement in some aspects. Id buy it over the Weiand manifold.

Its got to be better then the stock 5.3 or 6.0 intake and its half the cost of the F.A.S.T. and if the 96mm TB is available with Drive By Wire then I will be getting one...

Ok, here is a .PDF from their site... http://www.professional-products.com...alproducts.pdf I also Emailed them directly for some more info... I will also try calling them today...

I do not see a D.B.W. (Drive By Wire) version of the 96mm TB for the trucks BUT, it looks like their is a LS2 96mm D.B.W. for the 2005 Corvette and they offer a LS1 intake with the ls2 TB mount! So, I wonder if you could run the Corvette D.B.W. 96mm and if the PCM can be set up to work with it???

Other wise, I wonder how hard it would be to convert my truck to a cable setup instead of the PITA D.B.W. setup...???...???

Why would it be any harder than any of the other LS1/LS2/LS6 swaps that a lot of people have already done??? If I weren't paying for my house to be resided, I would be diving into this headlong!

The only issue i would see with the LS2 TB off a corvette would be the connecter for the harness to the TB...

it looks cool but i would be concerned about using it on a truck... The big thing i see problems with is how it is built compared to the stock 6.0 intake.. If you'll notice it sits lower on the engine than any truck intake... That means a whole lot of ususual Fabrication for intake tubing and such.... Correct me if i am wrong but that kinda caught my eye
